Strategy-to-Execution

Organizations are constantly changing and reinventing themselves. Strategic changes are driven from the need to win customers and compete in a rapidly changing business environment. Innovation programs have now been established in many organizations which generate new ideas on a regular basis. An increasing amount of operational changes are needed to implement strategies, improve efficiency, and react to external forces such as legislation. Organizations are not short on ideas or the desire to make them. The challenge is being able to harness all of these ideas, prioritize them, understand their impact on the Business and IT environment, and translate them into a coordinated set of executable actions across the enterprise.
